The fourth year of the Ann Kallagher Award takes an unexpected turn this year as the Award goes to the Sun Inn in Stockton.
Previous winners of the Award have been Asda, Boots the Chemist and Debenhams who won their awards for help with shopping. This time the Sun Inn has won the award for the provision of a blind friendly environment and a supportive, welcoming atmosphere.
George Glass Chairman of Stockton Blind People’s Voice who will present the Award in memory of their founder member said, “ The staff at the Sun Inn are superb and always helpful. Particular tribute should be given to the Sun Inn Folk Club on a Monday night where I am often joined by younger members of the group to enjoy the weekly singarounds and guests.”
John Williamson whose family run the pub said, "We are delighted that what we regard as part of our everyday job to assist our customers has been rewarded in this way. We hope we can encourage many more blind and visually impaired people to enjoy our facilities, all they have to do is ask for any help they may require and we will be pleased to meet their requirements”
